I would think anywhere between $1000 to $1500..

I've been lucky enough to play a few of the proper bowling machines and they are heaps more fun IMO.

PSPA had one and it actually fetched $1550. Didn't even have the right sized balls in it.

Quite a rare game with about 700 made. Played one myself and unless you are competing against somebody, it could get pretty old, pretty quick.

TNT amusements put up a good vid on this machine recently. Todd outlines the ability of the machine to run a tournament across X number of days and the machine can track all the results. Winner of the tourny would take half the machine earnings or some other form of redemption.

It is "rare" because it is a novelty game. It is not "rare" as in "collectible", it is "rare" as in "Raven rare"..
